UNRESTRAINED ANGER,
Threshing Machine Proprietor
Strikes a Blow That May
Prove Fatal.
This comes from Enlist on :
William Davis, who lives in the
northern end of Polk county, is this
season operating a steam thresher,
and boards his employers, having a
cook house on wheels which follows
the machine. On Friday evening
ho had completed work on the farm
of County Judge Stoufier, and after
supper commenced cleaning lip pre
paratory to moving to an adjoining
field. Three of the men commenced
complaining about the food furnish
ed by Mr. Davis, and after some
words were discharged. The re
mainder of tho crew started to get
tho machine ready to move, Mr. D.
being on his knees at the front of
tho machine, when Lnyton Tindle
made the remark that the supper
had not been lit to eat, and that the
men wero right in complaining.
Davis told him to keep still aud go
to work. This greatly exasperated
Tindle, and with an oath and an in
famous name he replied "I'll to
work when I get ready." Davis
immediately arose to his feet, aud
when passing under tho feed stable,
jerked out a large oak stick that had
been used as a support to tho table,
and struck Tindle over the head
with it, knocking him insensible.
Examination revealed the fact
that Tindle was seriously injured,
and Davis, after telling the men to
take Tindle to tho house and go for
a doctor, said ho would go aud give
himself up to the sherifi, and then
left tho crowd, since which time
nothing lias been .seen or heard of
him.
Mr. Tindle is seriously hurt, and.
not likely to recover. Mr. Davis is
supposed to behidingin the vicinity,
and if Tindle improves will come in
and give himself up; but in ease of
his death will attempt to escape;
Shcriit Smith is now lookiui for
him. Both men are well known
iu Polk County and bear good repu
tations. Tindle is unmarried.
An Important Inuuftry.
Tho North Salem Tile works, of
D.Aah& Co., is apt to bo over
looked because it is unpretentious
nd outbide of town. But it Is quito
important and growing. It is rim

"tain pipes during this dry weather

Ml and winter always create. The

as the time draws near for tho
public schools to commence, the
question of tho expense of school
books again touches paterfamlias'
sensltivo nerve that centers In tho
pocket book. Where a parent of
but moderate income has several
children to educate, it Is no joko to
hear tho oft repeated statement,
"Pa, will you got mo some books,
here's a list of them." "Pa, teacher
says I must havo another book," or
"Now I'm promoted, you must buy
me some new books." All these de
sires are accompanied with such
smiles of delight, and with such an
Innocent ignorance of the cost that
tho parent represses the sigli and
furnishes tho funds or has it
"charged."
In California, the stato prints and
publishes the school books furnish
ing them at tho following rates:
Cost price by mail or at retail stores,
First Reader, 20 cents ; Second
Reader, 40 cents ; Third Reader, CO
cents; Speller, 30 cents; Primary
No. lessons, 15 cents; Advanced
Arithmetic, 60 cents ; English Gram
mar, 50 cents; U. S. History, SO
cents.
Tills is said to he about half tho
ordinary cost of such books.
It is supposed that this covers the
cost to the state. They tire about to
put up a costly warehouse for stor
ing them.
A movement was made in the last
Oregon legislature, iu favor of the
state publisliiui; its own school
books, but it did not carry. It will
likely be renewed at tho coming
session. The subject is well wort hy
of consideration.

The water -works at the peniten
tiary not working satisfactorily for
the insane asylum, Dr. Luno has
ordered a large auxiliary pump for
tho new large well at tho latter
institution so that they can ruiso a
million gallons a day. They expect
to use enough water for all house
hold and garden purposes, supply
the penitentiary, the orphans'
home and the stato fair and havo a
good surplus. Certainly that was
a lucky hit of tho doctor's to sink
that well. Wonder if lie isn't a
water witch. Tho health at tho
asylum just now is exceptionally
good. Tho influx of new patients
hns been small of lute. '
Sunday Service at tbc l'eu.
On Sunday the lady superinten
dent of the W. C. T. U. flower
mission, composed of young girls
under her care, took out 200 small
bouquets with a neat curd witli a
seripturo text attached to each.
Elder J. W. Webb happened out to
preach to the prisoners and ho took
occasion to say to them that tho
flowers wero not brought because
they were thought to bo martyrs or
only worthy of pity and not blame,
but to remind them of their niotliors
aud sisters and homes and gardens
with tho hope that it might help to
stimulate them to good thoughts,
and resolves to reformation. Miss
Parmonter sang a solo, two of tho
girls King Home, Sweet Home; ono
of tho prisoners played while many
joined in singing gospel hymns. A
brief, practical, hopeful discourse
and prayer closed tho servico for
which more than ono expressed
thanks as breaking tho usual dread
monotony.
